The Witching Hour
This is a sign that we have some clean up work to do in our mind. A forgiveness lifestyle will help lessen the fear.
In the meantime, what can we do when we wake to find ourselves in the dark shadow of the night? We have two choices. We can elect to deal with the subjects that are coming up right then and there. If we are willing to just go with it and lose a few hours of sleep, this is a perfect time to do some forgiveness work. The Feel the Feelings process which can be found in Chapter 3 of "Forgiveness is the Key to Happiness" is perfect for these times. (There is also a downloadable audio meditation of this process available here for $2.99. Why not just slip the headphones on and do the work right in bed?)
Or, for those of us that have to be up early in the mornings to deal with jobs or kids, getting back to peace so that we can sleep is essential. It's important to "flip the switch" in our minds from fear to love. One way to do this is with affirmations. When we concentrate on repeating positive words over and over, there is no room left in our minds for the fear thoughts.
Flip the Switch from Fear to Love
Before starting the affirmations, it is a good idea to give the fear thinking over to Spirit. You can just say in your mind, "I am giving this over to you, Spirit." Or, if you are visual, you can create a beautiful white and gleaming marble altar in your mind. Make it all lit up, glowing and gorgeously bright. Place your fear thoughts on the altar and watch them be consumed with white flames of Infinite love.
What affirmations are best? I like "I accept the love of God" or "Thank you God, for creating me." An affirmation I'm currently working with is "I accept the happiness that God intends me to have." Of course, you can choose any affirmation that works for you personally and flips you over from fear to love.
I once read someplace that an hour of meditation is equal to three hours of sleep. Is this true? If this is so, you can calmly enjoy your affirmations, knowing that each moment you spend with them is contributing to a positive, powerful and energetic day tomorrow.
